1 Need a way to sign name in page that's easier to type than "--\[[Joey]]"
2 and that includes the date.
4 What syntax do other wikis use for this? I'm considering "\[[--]]" (with
5 spaces removed) as it has a nice nmemonic.
7 OTOH, adding additional syntax for this would be counter to one of the
8 design goals for ikiwiki: keeping as much markup as possible out of the
9 wiki and not adding nonstandard markup. And it's not significantly hard to
10 type "--\[[Joey]]", and as to the date, we do have page history.
12 I'm also unsure how to possibly implement this. Seems ikiwiki would need to
13 expand the rune to the user's name when a page is saved, but that leaves
18 Alternate idea: Make a sig plugin, which would expand --Name to
19 --[[user/Name]] (the "user/" bit would be configurable). This would be very
20 easy to do, although it would need to try to avoid false positives, such
21 as `--foo` in C code..
